Abstract:
An electric motor assembly includes an electric motor, a casing configured to house the motor, and an electrical enclosure coupled to the motor casing. The electrical enclosure houses a control board including a microcontroller and a memory device therein. The microcontroller is configured to control the electric motor based at least in part on motor configuration data stored in the memory device. The assembly also includes a near field communications (NFC) antenna positioned adjacent to an opening defined in the motor casing or the electronics enclosure, and is communicatively coupled to the memory device. The NFC antenna is configured to: receive a radio signal transmitted by an external programming device, the radio signal including updated motor configuration data; convert the radio signal to an electrical signal that includes the updated motor configuration data; and transmit the electrical signal to the memory device to store the updated motor configuration data.
Abstract:
An interface module configured to control a motor in an HVAC system is provided. The interface module includes a processor coupled in communication with a memory. The processor is configured to wirelessly receive configuration data from a wireless device, store the wirelessly received configuration data in the memory, determine a first operating parameter at which to operate the motor based on the configuration data and at least one signal received from a first device, and control the motor in accordance with the first operating parameter.
